Hi all,
I've done this mod to my '90 Series 1 V6 and it worked fine, only prob I encountered was the SET and RESUME buttons were wired in reverse, which I preferred anyway. Easy fixed by changing over the labels on the buttons, job done....
The wiring loom is available from Holden at around the 120 mark I think. As long as it comes with all the female pin connectors ready to push into the dash wiring blocks, it should be a peice of cake. Otherwise wiring into the blocks could be a little tricky as you will need the correct connectors and the correct crimping tool. Maybe a nice little job for your auto elec? But fitting them to the blocks will be dead easy using the wiring diagram.
Below is the link to the thread I originally commented on, this(along with the wiring diagram already supplied) should help give a picture of whats involved. I have some basic pics of the unit, loom, wiring to fuse box and the brake switches if someone would like me to post them on here also, someone just needs to ask. I have them on my PC at work and can post them tonight....while I'm on night shift.
As for fitting to a V8, I'm not sure, but reckon the only issue would be wiring into the dash if there was going to be a problem. Everything else should be alright I would think, as it's a straight bolt on for the control module and the throttle control.
All said and done, it's nice to have a factory accessory rather than a bolt on from Autobarn....
Cheers.... :drink:
